For the past six months i have been working on a short documentary which follows the University of Utah Quidditch team. We just released the trailer for the film which will premier this November at the Rose Wagner theater along with 3 other student produced films.

Is this a joke or are people serious?

i don't even understand how people think they can argue that it's a sport when you hold a freakin' broom at toss exercise balls at each other.

They are serious. It is actually pretty rough. At the tournament the team actually had one player knocked out, a broken ankle and a whole bunch of other minor injuries. Don't knock it till you've tried it.

Just because it's serious doesn't mean it counts as a physically intensive sport. I mean, how fast can you really run while holding a broom between your legs? Even though you can get hurt it doesn't mean it's a crazy sport, it could just be kids tripping over their brooms into one another.

I'd rather do LARPing. IF they made a quidditch "inspired" game I might say OK, but running with a broom serves no purpose and is just dumb. But hey, each to their own, it amuses the people who play and everyone else who sees it, so I guess its a win win.

This is the gayest game I've ever heard of. You might as well be at home playing WOW.
